The strategy of the Huaxing Army is to attack one point and the center blossoms.Concentrate the artillery forces to slam a little, then tear a hole and expand in other directions from this opening.The trenches in the north of the city became the direction of the main attack, and the mortars bombarded it for more than ten minutes, and nearly 10,000 shells exploded everywhere on the position.There were more than 10,000 U.S. troops defending here, and there were as many as 2,000 people in each line of defense.After the Huaxing army stormed the north, the American troops from other directions quickly gathered thousands of men to this side, and the defense troops in the north soared to as many as 5,000.At the time of the mortar bombardment, more than a dozen ironclad chariots also quickly charged with thick smoke.The U.S. troops in the trenches were so pressed by the artillery fire that they couldn't raise their heads, and finally someone braved the artillery fire to check the situation, and they were frightened by the dozen or so ironclad chariots and quickly squatted down.At this time, the regular army was quite heroic and braved the artillery fire to shoot at the ironclad chariots, and the militia forces were already so frightened that they hid in the trenches and did not dare to get up.There are even female soldiers who have been so frightened that they have cried.However, in the heavy artillery fire, no sound could be heard.The ironclad chariot was full of flames, and the bullets crackled on it, but it had no effect.The fire was fiercest there, and the muzzles of the ironclad chariots were pointed wherever they were.From time to time, the barrels of the guns rumbled, sending the debris of the American trenches flying.The infantry quickly followed the ironclad chariot and charged after the ironclad chariot broke through the first line of trench defense, and the mortar finally fell silent.The improved mortar has a range of 500 meters, which is powerful enough to deal with such small trenches in the city.It was only a defensive force of 5,000 men, and after being bombarded by shells, there were thousands of casualties.As soon as the ironclad chariot passed, thousands of people died directly under the strafing of machine guns.After the infantry of the Huaxing Army launched an assault, the remaining remnants of the army broke directly backwards.As soon as the trenches on the northern front were breached, the Huaxing army quickly broke through to other defensive lines.The minefields built by the US troops outside the trenches did not come in handy, and the Huaxing Army did not break through from the front at all.This was completely unexpected by Nimiz, according to her deployment, the Huaxing army had the advantage of manpower and weapons, and it had to launch an all-out attack.Even if he dies, he can exchange some lives with Huaxingjun.But he didn't expect that Huaxingjun's tactics would be so conservative.It is really difficult to break through from only one direction, and it is really difficult to destroy a Huaxing army.After the first line of defense of the U.S. army was completely breached, the bunkers of the second line of defense made of barbed wire were like tofu scum under the fire of ironclad chariots.The ironclad chariot was originally a flat fire, and the shells hit the bunker, and there was a break more than ten meters wide.Soon, the second line of defense was easily broken by the Huaxing army.The U.S. troops retreated again and completely fled into the barracks building.After the Huaxing army cleared all the outer fronts, Ji Hongchang urgently ordered all the soldiers and horses to suspend their actions.The soldiers were confused and watched the victory.It's just a few buildings, and the ironclad chariot will be leveled out with a few cannons.The three division commanders also all returned from the front, not knowing what the command was planning."
Commander, why stop attacking the foreign devils, there are only these few people left, it's not enough for us to fight" "Yes, Commander.The soldiers were fighting smoothly, why did they stop"""As soon as the division commanders entered the door, they shouted at Ji Hongchang with a reluctant face."
Alright, look at you one by one, as if I didn't let you enjoy it.You don't know, if you go inside, you'll fall for the tricks of foreign devils. ”Ji Hongchang chuckled and asked people to take out the map and set it up on the conference table.The "treacherous" division commanders frowned, and they were all a little puzzled.The battle has been fought to this extent, and I don't know what tricks the enemy can play again, "You see, here, and here, all of them have been planted with high explosives by the enemy.The enemy wants to die with us, and once these explosives explode, it is estimated that there will be countless casualties within a radius of 500 meters.This was originally the enemy's barracks, and all the weapons and ammunition in the arsenal were dismantled and turned into explosive packs.The foreign devils are waiting for us to go inside. ”Ji Hongchang pointed to the map and introduced the soldiers around.The three division commanders were stunned at the same time, and then they scolded, "Grandma is a bear, foreign devils are really vicious, they have the ability to fight openly, I still think they are a man" These explosion areas are arranged in a triangle, if you break into this explosion area, you will have to face the bomb attack on your belly and back.Just now, the Huaxing Army cleaned up the outer battlefield, and all the foreign devils were shot when they met.There was a foreign devil who was gurgling and shouting, but fortunately, a battalion commander who knew English found him and spared his life.As soon as he spat out this astonishing conspiracy, the battalion commander immediately reported it to the command, and the whole army immediately stopped the attack.Nimiz checked the military situation in the bunker, and when he saw that the Huaxing army had suddenly stopped attacking, he was full of puzzlement.The surrounding generals were depressed to death, and they didn't know what the Huaxing Army was going to do.As long as the Huaxing Army does not enter the explosion area, they just want to die together, and they don't have that chance."
Come on, send a team of soldiers to take the initiative to attack the Huaxing army and lure them in," Nimiz decided to take the initiative to attack after consulting with the generals, and then feigned defeat and retreated, luring the Huaxing army into the bombing area, and after the generals around him got the order, he organized thousands of people to attack the Huaxing army among the few remaining soldiers.Soon there was a loud burst of guns and artillery on the defense line of the Huaxing army, and the bullets crackled.Before the U.S. troops fired a few shots, they hurriedly turned around and fled.The Huaxing army was still deployed more than 5,000 meters away, without the slightest intention of attacking, and almost vomited blood from Nimi."
No, someone must have revealed our plans."
The generals of the American army once again gathered around Nimitz to discuss the matter, and all kinds of circumstances showed that the Huaxing army had already understood their plan."
That's right, someone must have betrayed us" "So what should we do" "It's already dark, and so are the hearts of the commanders.I really can't die if I want to, according to the plan, at least I had to take the lives of thousands of Huaxing soldiers.It's no wonder that their heroes are short of breath, and they really know how difficult it is to kill a Huaxing army when they really go to the battlefield.Without artillery, machine guns were the only heavy weapons available.As a result, the Huaxing army had ironclad chariots to fight the vanguard, and as soon as the machine guns rang out, they would be shelled immediately.And the defense line built with rifles was completely vulnerable under the strafing of the submachine guns of the Huaxing Army.While the U.S. military was looking for a countermeasure with a sad face, the Huaxing Army's position also brought in 20 large-caliber field guns one after another.Mortars and ironclad chariots are both close-station weapons and are not suitable for long-range bombing.Most of the warehouses and high-rise buildings where the US military planted explosives are 3,000 meters away, and only field artillery can completely cover these places.After dawn, the twenty field guns of the Huaxing Army were already in line with their positions.Each gun was equipped with fifty rounds of ammunition, enough to raze the place where the Americans had planted their explosives
